Comment (by thoughtpolice):
I'll also mention that while this happens, we will likely have to resort
to simply checking if there is no version tag, and if not, checking ghc-
pkg output and finding the proper package version to use and emit that the
configuration file we register with ghc-pkg.
It also means that until we implement this or this gets fixed, any library
built with franchise that depends on haskell98 will be reported as broken
by ghc-pkg (although it really probably isn't, and ghc-pkg check will be
of no help.)
